You probably are
aware of what a magnificent tool hypnosis is for things like stopping
smoking, managing pain, past-life regression and self-empowerment.
Did you know that hypnosis is also one of the best ways to access and
deepen your intuition?
This is because an
experienced, certified hypnotist has spent many hours learning
techniques specifically to aid you in entering the deepest possible
trance. It is at this very deep level that we are able to make our
most profound journeys and receive the knowledge we are seeking.
A good hypnotist
is professionally trained to guide you skillfully to your
destination. I like to remind clients who have come to me to improve
their intuition that we are embarking on their journey, not
mine; my job is simply to read the map and hold up the lamp. The
expert hypnotist will be a warm, non-leading witness to all that you
encounter, whether your desire is to find answers to pressing
questions, learn how to channel, or open to become more psychic.
While you may want
to choose to work with a hypnotist for your deepest personal
journeys, truth is always present and available within you. Right
now, even while reading this article, you may enter a light trance
and access your intuition! Take a moment to read and then follow
each step below in order:
-
Determine ahead of
time exactly what question you want answered. Why ahead of time? When
we connect with the Source in which our truth rests, we often feel so
loved and comforted that our pressing problems suddenly appear to be
insignificant. In such a state we often feel that we don't have any
problems at all-which is undoubtedly true-but upon our return to
"earth," our issues once again seem overwhelming, and we
wish we had asked the question when we had the chance.
-
Pre-select the
sacred space in which you will most comfortably and easily receive
your answers. Use your imagination now to provide this setting. You
may choose anything that appeals to you. It could be a special room,
a garden, a hall of knowledge, a forest, a space ship, a seashore or
simply being in the presence of "the Light." Consider
keeping your sacred space simple. Avoid using your precious moments
in trance as an interior decorator, when the real objective is to
access guidance.
-
Pre-select the
loving form from which you will receive your answers. This could be a
power animal, a spirit guide, an angel, the ocean, a book of
knowledge, a video, a star, the Light, your own Highest Self or an
inner knowing.
-
Now begin to
relax. It is easy to enter light trance; you can do it as you read
these instructions. Uncross your hands and legs... Let your jaw
loosen... And now soften all the muscles around your eyes, eyebrows
and cheeks... Appreciate and expand the distance between your
earlobes and shoulders... Focus on your breathing.
-
Be willing to
loosen any agenda you might have. Sense your emotional
framework-especially any urgent "gotta haves," frustrations
or distresses-as a blanket wrapped tightly around your body. Unwrap
this blanket and let it go now...and notice how much more expanded
and free this makes you feel.
-
After reading this
paragraph, close your eyes and mentally travel to your chosen sacred
space. Invite the form which will provide your answers to join you.
You may actually see it, or simply know it is there by the sense of
love you feel. Ask your question...and await your answer. Answers
often come almost instantly. You may hear your answer, read it, or
just have a knowing, like a light switch being turned on. If you do
not receive an immediate answer, remain open and aware, for within a
short time it will arrive, perhaps later in the day in the form of a
coincidence or a dream.
